My cammed '99 v6 camaro (borla pro xs)

[89kawa]

how did you mount your exhaust

[99v6cam]

@89kawa It's mounted the same as the stock exhaust except there's an additional hanger on the right side since the v6 only had one on the left from the factory.

[MajesticProductions1]

I'm putting an SLP Loudmouth exhaust, 4:10 gears, and a B&M Megashifter. I have a friend who suggest Comp Cams GT1 which was like 300. But what else do I need?

[99v6cam]

@MajesticProductions1 For some of the valvetrain components, you don't NEED to upgrade or replace them, but it's a good idea to if your motor has a good amount of miles on it or if you have a very aggressive cam. For a GT1 cam, I'd definitely get stronger valve springs and hardened pushrods. If your motor has over 75,000 miles (which it likely does) I'd get retainers and lifters as well just to be safe.

[MajesticProductions1]

@99v6cam Okay I found an "Installation kit" does that have everything I need?

[99v6cam]

@MajesticProductions1 I honestly don't know. I don't know what the "installation kit" entails.If you're doing it yourself aside from essentials, you'll need upper and lower intake gaskets,valve cover gaskets, a torque wrench, torx bits, plenty of ratchet wrenches and sockets of varying sizes,10 quarts of oil (once you finish put 5 in, run it for a few minutes [don't freak out if it's noisy, and smokey at first] then change the oil again once the noise and smoke stops), and a big bag of patience.

[MajesticProductions1]

How much did it cost you to do the cams? I saw your video and I'm buying an SLP Loudmouth I have an 02 Firebird. I want to cam it but idk what i need and how much it will cost

[99v6cam]

@MajesticProductions1 The cam itself was only about $300, but for all of the beefed up valvetrain (valvesprings, retainers, hardened push rods, etc) and a few tools to aid my installation it was about a grand (I installed it myself). It's a custom grind cam from comp cams (218/218 .528/.528 112LSA).

[ridNrimZ]

sounds good man, what cam u put in her?

[99v6cam]

@ridNrimZ It's a custom grind cam from comp cams (218/218 .528/.528 112LSA).

[TransAmRob383]

Nice v6 man.I coulnt pull it off so I just bought a v8.lol

[8thcylinder]

dude its always going to sound like a v6 hahaha

[St0pTrashTyping]

Really, I though v6 could fake the sound of a v8 ? LOL

no shit its going too sound of a v6 because it is one genius.

 and there are plenty of very mean sounding v6s

[Libertyforall1776]

Too raspy at rev. -- likely due to lack of cat.

[99v6cam]

Listen to the driving vid, rasp isn't there :)

[8thcylinder]

haha its because its a v6

[Libertyforall1776]

So is the CAT on or off?

[99v6cam]

Off

[Libertyforall1776]

Well THAT is the reason it sounds so raspy -- not just because it's a V6...

[ghettobro1234]

Probably the most ballsiest v6 ive ever heard

Good job man

[01CamaroRS]

why didn't you keep the loudmouth when you cammed it?

[99v6cam]

The loudmouth was loooooong gone by the time I cammed it.

[vfIskullangel]

Can't wait to get the Borla exhaust for mine. :)

[markmeyer04]

I have to say that is a bad ass sounding v6 and thats coming from an ls1 owner.

[ATVRider6840]

what all do u have in this car on this video?

[99v6cam]

Headers, no cat, borla exhaust (3"), 4.10 gears, and a cam (and the valvetrain to support it). There's a bunch of other little mods too (msd wires, aluminum driveshaft, springs, lcas, lca relocation brackets, things like that) but those are the significant ones.

[brianharrison06]

Nice work for a v6 i had one and sold it got a 2000 ss

[jayschmay]

that sounds disgusting!!! never would've guessed it was a v6! it sounds like a mean ass LS1

[Cutegoofoff]

Dont hate..HAhaha!

[dtgnr69]

I'd rather be legal and avoid the smog Nazis. I know someone who did gut their cat and said they noticed a difference, though. I just know my luck would fail. LOL!

[zchris87v]

That's why you should live in a state with no inspection :)

[ReidHenderson]

What state is that.. I live in South Carolina and we have no inspection every car I own that isnt OBDII computer controlled has been missing its CATS..

[99v6cam]

Florida

[dtgnr69]

Nice! I've got a V6 Camaro with a cam and head work done. I'll be throwing on some headers, new cat, and cat-back system real soon. Hopefully, it'll be sounding near as good.

[tiedie2]

Why waste money on a new cat when you can just gut the stock cat?

[EviLotus01]

borla is a big improvement best sounding v6 camaro i have heard not it has that low end it was missing nice job. soo ill put up new vids of my stang w/ the mac exaust if u wanna check that out in a few days :)

[99v6cam]

I'll check it out for sure.

[ujgidfug]

sounds nice but to be honest I wouldnt waste my money on a V6 tho

[FCOD]

pretty big cam for a V6. Well... the duration and LSA at least.

got any numbers yet?

[MDTEAM]

How much did it improve? And what are u running now?

[napalmstrike]

whoa!

[NOAHB270]

badass!! what kind of cam u got? and how much did u pay for it?!

[99v6cam]

For the cam, all the valvetrain stuff and any extra tools that I needed to install it ended up being just about a grand. I have a custom gring cam from comp cams (218/218 .528/.528 112LSA)
